‘The new logistics centre is an important phase in the company’s development, as the number of Lidl stores in Lithuania is increasing, and their proper supply has to be ensured. At the same time, this means an even greater positive impact on the country’s economy and hundreds of new jobs. The new logistics centre will stand out thanks to its modern and sustainable solutions, which will help to ensure even more efficient network operations and provide customers with the best value for money,’ says Radostin Roussev-Peine,’ CEO of Lidl Lietuva (Lidl Lithuania).

The construction of the new logistics centre will be handled by Conresta, a general contracting company with many years of experience. During the peak periods of the works, more than 350 Conresta employees and subcontractors will be working on the project construction site. ‘While building this logistics centre, we will manage more than one hundred subcontractors and suppliers, and we will plan the works very carefully so that all the construction works at the site are carried out on time. We have gained lots of experience in building logistics centres for both Lithuanian and foreign investors, so I have no doubt that we will implement this project by the planned deadline and meet the customer’s expectations by ensuring highest quality,’ said Lukas Laukaitis, the CEO of Conresta.

It will be modern and include sustainable solutions

One of the company’s sustainable solutions, which will be implemented in the new logistics centre, is environment-friendly refrigerants installed in the refrigeration rooms: the heat energy released during the cooling process of these rooms will be used to heat other rooms. Smart LED outdoor and indoor lighting will also be installed. In the territory of the logistics centre, landscaping solutions of an exceptional scale will be implemented, including the roof of the logistics centre. In total, more than 600 trees, 140 hedge seedlings, 1500 shrub seedlings and 1200 perennial herbaceous plants will be planted on the plot. A green roof is also planned, with an area of ​​about 400 sq.m, and solar panels will be installed, which will allow for the significant reduction of electricity costs. They are planned to cover 25% of the electricity bill of the logistics centre.

The built logistics centre is intended to be certified according to the international Edge Standard, which shows that the company follows the highest standards of sustainability. The logistics centre will also be the first construction project in the history of Lidl Lietuva (Lidl Lithuania), with the design fully implemented in a 3D environment. This means that as well as structures and architecture, the engineering systems are designed in virtual space. With this design method, it is easy to notice collisions of various systems, and reducing the number of these collisions will allow the company to both lower costs and shorten construction deadlines, which is also extremely important.

Based on Lidl’s latest requirements, the logistics centre will have to employ state-of-the-art solutions to maintain the quality of products stored at a certain temperature. Air lock chambers (buffer rooms) will be installed in the logistics centre to ensure an uninterrupted cold chain for delivered products. In this way, as soon as the delivered products leave the vehicle, they will go to a temperature-controlled intermediate room, and then to a storage room.

Project

Features:

  • There are green areas on the plot, green roofs are installed and green areas are installed inside the building’s administrative premises
  • The building is better insulated as required by normative documents, thus the costs for heating and cooling of the building decrease.
  • The heat released during the technological process is used for heating the building.
  • Solar panels are planned to be installed on the building’s roof

Ecology:

  • Rainwater is cleaned, collected in filtration fields and filtered into the ground; this is a closed cycle with no overload of centralised networks.
  • Existing trees with rare insect habitats are preserved.
